How will making tax payers pay for dick chopping surgery bring jobs to the district?
Actually, how will impeaching Trump bring jobs to your district?
Pretending for a moment that he's actually done anything impeachable. Let's go with the only plausible scenario, which that the Pee tape is real, when it is released it wins the AVN's award for hottest watersports video, but after the ceremony Trump is implicated in a AVN judge vote-buying scandal.
Do you know what a serious impeachment proceedings with a legitimate chance of success would do to the stock market, and to jobs?
Yes, I know, it is shocking John is talking out of his ass about things he doesn't understand.
I still haven't been able to determine how long after the polls close we can begin to expect declarations. Personally I'm going to try to get 5-6 hours sleep in the evening then wake up at close of play Boston time so I can get all the news live. Should be a fun time.
Not to dampen your enthusiasm, but I think there might be less Wu sperging than you imagine. He's already acknowledged that he stands no chance and has given up campaigning, so I'm just expecting a few huffy tweets about how the world isn't ready for a womyn as brave and woke as John Flynt, and how he'll do better next time. Maybe a bit of circlejerking about how amazing it is to get X votes when he didn't even try.
I'll be satisfied if he starts breaking out the smughearts.
Polls close at 8 EDT. I expect the AP will call it immediately after the first results come in, but I don’t know enough about Mass. politics to know how long it takes to count votes.
It's disgusting how John treats these animals. They're filthy and probably diseased. You can tell just looking at them that they are horribly neglected.

I've been saying all along that this is going to happen, because random protest/uninformed votes will swamp whatever paltry GOTV efforts Wu and Voehl manage.

I didn't watch the cardboard cutout ad, I'm just hoping it's exactly like when Barney made his Plow King ad and beat the Mr. Plow cutout with a baseball bat.
I would say 22,000 votes could win that race. This year I predict high turnout.
My current guesses: Lynch 39,000 or so, Brianna 9000-12,000 or so, Voehl 3000 or so. Voehl has indeed done hardly any campaigning but there are a lot who hate Lynch but wouldn't vote for Brianna either. And I bet blank also gets about 4000 votes.
The 8th is cantankerous and it knows a shit sandwich when it smells one. Which is all 3 candidates.
If you vote for me, I will go to Bill Galvin's office personally and get the list of write in totals and frame it.
Also I will probly film the encounter, since Galvin hates me. That should be interesting.
I blocked his path at the state convention and made him wait for me and Brianna to finish talking.
Just like he made us wait infinitely for the provisional ballot totals in the MA 2016 elections
I think you all are being way optimistic of Brianna's vote totals. Wu has done so little public reach out. And what little they did appeared to horrify the attendees. I don't think Wu can even count on the small contingent of "vote for a woman, any woman" if any of said contingent has met or heard of Wu. Wu won't get anywhere near 20%. Wu feels like a 3-5% candidate. Especially holding the last place on the ballot.
This is ludicrously high.
John has barely any name recognition other than on twitter, and what little exposure he has had to the actual voters has been met with derision and scorn. He's known for being an idiotic joke "canidate" who drives around in a Porsche to go doorknocking, not as an actual contender.

I don't disagree with this. And there is no polling data so it's a wild guess as far as numbers.
But A) everybody seems to think she is Asian (which she HATES). A lot of people will vote for her thinking let's get the nice Asian lady in office. The district is 18% Asian. A lot of the black vote will go for her too, thinking she is Asian. Lynch has Brockton locked down as he has a nice African American staffer who spent a lot of time down there. And Dorchester. But Roxbury will probably go Brianna, as well as West Roxbury and probably Hyde Park and JP. Lynch is VERY hated there, and Wu sounds less like a a white person name than Voehl. Really a lot of people vote based on the sound of the name if they know nothing else about the candidates.
B) lots of people want to vote against the incumbent this year, or for someone new.
C) lots of people want to vote for a woman this year
D) Those 18% Lynch-haters will vote for either Voehl or Brianna
E) We kinda took over the Mass Dems infrastructure, us Bernie types. Not all of it but a lot of it. She will get a few votes based on tepid support of Bernie style issues.
But the lion's share of her votes I think will come from people who never met her and think she is Asian.
Even though she has recently added to her stump speech for some reason that she "never would have taken Frank's name if she knew it would make so many people think she is Chinese"
